The investment period for the predecessor fund, GCF I, has ended and the team is now actively investing in GCF II. Having made 12 global investments diversified across technologies and debt structures, CGF I has reached 100%1 of capital committed and had its first full realisation in Q4 2025. With ample current opportunities in the pipeline, GCF II has already made the first investment by providing refinancing to a Dutch portfolio of solar and battery storage (BESS) assets, representing 450MW of capacity.

The fund’s investment strategy is focused on providing credit solutions to renewable energy projects, energy-transition companies, and adjacent opportunities in OECD jurisdictions, particularly in Europe, North America and selective jurisdictions in the Asia-Pacific region. It targets higher-yielding debt, focusing primarily on senior secured credit investments.

CIP’s flagship credit strategy seeks to invest into balanced and diversified investments across transaction types, project lifecycles, geographies and technologies. It provides investors with access to an asset class with substantial growth momentum, attractive risk-adjusted returns and low correlation to other asset classes.

“We are very pleased to have reached a strong first close for our flagship credit fund, with impressive support from existing and new investors across North America, Europe, and the APAC region. We believe the market for this type of capital offers investors an attractive risk adjusted return, while at the same time providing the market with a capital solution that will help drive the build-out of much needed energy solutions,” says Jakob Groot, Partner and Co-Head of the CIP Credit Platform.
